What if Pemberley was cursed?
For the newly married Mr. and Mrs. Charles Bingley, an invitation to Pemberley offers a welcome escape from Netherfield Park and its unfortunate proximity to Mrs. Bennet. For Charles, it offers something more: the first sign that his old friend is emerging from his grief after Georgiana Darcy’s death in the spring of 1812.
Fitzwilliam Darcy never came to Hertfordshire. He has never met Elizabeth Bennet.
That is about to change.
But Pemberley holds more than an introduction to her new brother’s mysterious friend. A secret child enjoys Mr. Darcy’s favor, leaving Elizabeth with questions no one seems eager to answer. And beneath the grandeur of his estate linger whispers of a curse upon the land.
The closer Elizabeth draws to Pemberley’s master, the harder it becomes to dismiss its secrets. What is Mr. Darcy hiding? And what might loving him cost her?
In a house shadowed by grief and a land steeped in secrets, it may take a witch to change the Darcy family’s fate.
